Forasmuch as there is none like unto thee, O LORD; thou art great, and thy name is great in might.
There is no one like the Lord, for He is great and His name is great in might and power. This confession stands in its setting as a contrast between the living God who made the world by His power and powerless idols with the heathen practices connected with them. His unmatched greatness and power are held up as reason to revere Him. The question that follows applies that greatness to Him as King of the nations, declaring Him worthy of the reverence of the nations. After affliction, God's people acknowledge His unmatched greatness and power in these very words.
